I Refuse To Become Scumbag In Tokyo-Novel

Chapter 678: Supermarket

“Geez, you should call me auntie.” Hana was embarrassed, especially when Shishio called her first name.

“Oh, right, auntie.” Shishio nodded and didn’t fight back since he knew the place and occasion weren’t right. He knew he had made a mistake since he called her by her first name, especially when Yukinoshita and Rita were present.

While he didn’t turn in their direction, he could see they were staring at him menacingly.

To be honest, he knew that his relationship with Hana was so close that it might cause annoyance or jealousy from Yui or Hana’s husband, yet how could they be so close?

After all, they almost never met each other after their last meeting during summer vacation.

The answer was simple.

Phone.

After their last meeting, they exchanged phone numbers and emails, so they often texted and called each other. As for their topic of conversation, there were so many things that he forgot. It was a random thing, especially when Hana would tell him anything from how she found something interesting during her time cleaning, shopping, and her daily life.

Hana talked about many things with him, including how she often talked about her life when her husband and Yui weren’t there.

It might be strange, but a housewife was rather free.

All they needed to do was to take care of the house, from cooking, cleaning, laundry, and many others.

In other words, it wouldn’t be strange to say Hana was a maid.

This was how her husband treated her, and after a while, their love faded.

Hana might be beautiful, but when one did it with the same people countless times, the sense of freshness disappeared, and they lost their excitement. This was a normal thing, and it happened to everyone. Even many who had married also stopped having sex when they had children.

As for why they stopped, it might be because the man didn’t see their wives as a woman anymore, or they might just lack a sexual desire.

She might be beautiful, but her husband might have a hard time seeing her as attractive, which made him sigh since if he had such a beautiful wife, he would take her every night, even if there was a rain or storm.

“How was your movie? Is it done?” Hana asked curiously since she knew her daughter and Shishio had decided to make a movie. She was surprised, but more importantly, she was also quite curious.

As for jealousy?

There was no such feeling.

If there was jealousy, it was probably because her daughter could meet Shishio many times, while she could only meet him now, which made her a bit lonely.

“Yes.”

“Have it finished?”

“Not yet, but you will see the finished product at the cultural festival, Auntie.”

“Then, I will come to watch.” Hana looked at her daughter and said, “I also want to see Yui on the screen. By the way, she didn’t cause trouble, right?”

“Mom!” Yui blushed and felt embarrassed.

Was this how her mother saw her?

While she didn’t deny that she often made trouble, how could her mother ask such a question?

“No, it seems that Yui-senpai has a talent for acting.” Shishio didn’t lie since Yui was good at acting. Was it because of her nature? Was it because of her everyday life? Probably. However, because of it, the shooting process was quite smooth.

“Really? Maybe, Yui will become an actress in the future?” Hana was surprised.

“Er… Yui-senpai, do you want to become an actress?” Shishio had never heard of Yui’s dream.

“No, no… I-I want to become a bride…” Yui said softly as she looked in his direction.

“…………..” Everyone.

‘Why are you all looking at me?’

“By the way, are you going somewhere?” Shishio asked Hana.

‘You’re changing the topic…’ Everyone.

Yui smiled helplessly, but she didn’t say much since she knew this was normal. After all, his girlfriend was right beside him.

Could he say that he would marry her? No way.

She also didn’t expect him to say something like that, yet even so, maybe, she had such hope, but she knew it was impossible.

“Yes, I am going to buy groceries for dinner.” Hana looked at her daughter in a complicated mood. The feeling of her daughter was clear, and she knew that her daughter had a crush on this bastard. She looked at Shishio for a while and thought she might need to talk with him since she didn’t want her daughter to be sad.

Shishio wasn’t sure what was on Hana’s mind, but he said, “Do you want me to help you?”

“No, no. If I do that, I will trouble you, right? And those two girls seem to have a problem if you help me.” Hana showed a restrained smile while looking at Yukinoshita and Rita. The beauty of those girls didn’t even lose to her daughter. No, they were better.

If there was something that Yui was better than them, it was probably her honesty, simplicity, and cheerfulness.

Having a wife like Yui, who could wholeheartedly love someone and do her best to make the person she loved happy, was probably the greatest thing one could ask for in life.

Yet even if he wanted to make a move, it was hard, especially with many people always around him.

“I don’t mind.” Yukinoshita looked at Rita and asked, “But are you okay, Rita? You seem to be in a hurry, right?”

“It’s okay. The event that I want to be will last until late at night, so there is still much time.”

The reason why Rita wanted to invite him on a date was that she wanted to show him something, and this something was an event.

“The two are okay.” However, Shishio knew this wasn’t enough, so he looked at Yui and said, “Senpai, what do you think?”

“Eh? Me?” Yui was startled.

“Well, I want to stay with you longer, though. Is that okay?”

“Ye-Yes!” Yui quickly became happy.

“………….” Everyone.

“Come on, mom! Let’s go with him!” Yui quickly pulled her mother to Shishio’s car.

Hana looked at her daughter in a complicated mood, wondering whether Yui would sell her, so Yui could be with him. She let out a long sigh and didn’t say much any longer since she had to say it was more comfortable with a car instead of walking.

—

“Hmm… so it’s like this.”

Rita looked around curiously, wandering around the supermarket. While she had been in this country for a while, she only visited a convenience store to eat. It was unhealthy, so she also thought to buy something for her daily food since it was impossible for him to ask Shishio to treat her all the time.

Yukinoshita also did the same since she had bought many vegetables, so she also needed some companionship, such as meat or something. Still, she glanced in Shishio’s direction since she felt his relationship with Yui’s mother seemed too close.

‘It might be my imagination.’

Even if he had a history of dating an older woman such as Hiratsuka, Yui’s mother was a different case.

Hana was a married woman. She had a husband and a wife of someone. She also had a child, but more importantly, their age was too far apart.

‘No, no. That’s not the most important point.’

The most important point was Hana was Yui’s mother.

He shouldn’t do something to his senior’s mother, right?

Yukinoshita took a deep breath and decided to believe him. Yet when she thought about the charm of her man, it might be the opposite side was the one who seduced him.

But Hana shouldn’t be that kind of woman, right?

While Yukinoshita was in her own thoughts, Shishio talked with Yui with a laugh, but somehow he teased her again, which made her puff her cheeks and hit his arm.

Watching the two, Hana smiled since she could see how deep Yui was feeling toward him, yet when she knew what kind of man Shishio was, it made her hesitate. Whether Yukinoshita or Rita, she knew they had a relationship with this young man, yet, even so, she could see that Yui didn’t really mind and even wanted to join, which made her unsure of what kind of advice she should give her daughter.

Hana couldn’t say anything to her daughter except to support her, but there was something that she could say to Shishio.

“Yui, can you get me soy sauce?”

“Eh~?” Yui complained and seemed reluctant.

“Yui…”

“Yes…” Yui sighed before she said something to Shishio and left to pick up the soy sauce, leaving Shishio and her mother alone.

“Shishio-kun.”

“Yes?”

“You know Yui’s feeling, right?” Hana asked as her eyes were on him.

“Yes.” Shishio nodded since he wasn’t an oblivious protagonist. He wasn’t blind, and he could see that Yui was like an obedient, devoted dog who wanted to please him all the time.

“Then, can you promise me something…” Hana wanted to say something, but he cut her words.

“Sorry, no.”

“Why?” She was a bit angry.

“Isn’t it obvious? I have a girlfriend. More than one. If you’re her mother, shouldn’t you tell her to search for other men who are better than me and can wholeheartedly love her alone?” Shishio stared at Hana.

“Tha-That…” Hana couldn’t deny him since she should tell her daughter to find someone better. Not a scumbag like him. However, the person that her daughter fell for was this bastard, so she could only hope that he could make her happy.

“Please leave this matter to us. As for whether we will be together or not, you will see it in the future.”

“…I am so sorry for saying so much, Shishio-kun.” Hana knew that she might have talked too much about their relationship.

“It’s okay. You’re her mother. It’s natural that you want happiness for your daughter.”

“Shishio-kun…” Hana felt her heart warm.

“But Hana-san, what about you?”

“Me-Me?” Hana was startled, but before she could react, her hand was held by him.

“Are you happy now?”

“Wh-What are you saying, Shishio-kun?!” Her voice was restrained as she looked around, afraid that someone would see her, but she didn’t pull her hand away from him. Still, it was fortunate that no one saw them.

“We have talked many times over the phone. You should be clear about what I am talking about, right?”

Hana blushed, then said, “I-I am Yui’s mother, and… and I am also a married woman. You shouldn’t do this, Shishio-kun…” She didn’t dare to look into his eyes since she was afraid that something that shouldn’t happen would happen if she stared into his eyes.

“Hana-san…”

“No, no. You can’t do this, Shishio-kun…” Her voice was weak, and she didn’t even have resistance, but suddenly she was confused when he let her hand go.

“Mom, this is soy sauce!” Yui returned with a bottle of soy sauce and put it in the cart. Still, she looked at her mother with a confused expression and asked, “Why is your face red, mom?”

“No-Nothing. It might be too hot…”

“Really?” Yui was confused.

“Senpai, let’s get some snacks.”

“OOOH!”

“You can’t buy too much!” Hana reprimanded them, but she didn’t stop them since she needed to calm herself. She could feel her heart thumping, and her body was scorching, but suddenly one question emerged in her mind.

If Yui didn’t come, what would happen?
